so, friday ended up being a pretty good day. i went to the interview, i would've liked to have been there earlier, like the trimet schedule said, but i got there like 5minutes early. the first bus was late, but then the 2nd bus had a group of kids on it and was hella crowded and it just takes longer. erg. anyway. the director remembered me from applying last year and doing field observation which is a good thing. i was really relaxed. they might call jobs / volunteer people / references, so i am slightly nervous about that but whatever. they said they are going to see what else the applicant pool has to offer but they will def. get in touch next week. they said what they would like to do instead of a working interview bc they have seen me interact with children and staff there is to potentially hire me for a week so that i could see logistically and otherwise if it worked and how myself, the present co-lead and assistant work together and overall if it was a good fit. i have another interview on monday at a different place and i should apply to some stuff tomorrow.

so i think i am going to write an e-mail to the teachers and one to the whole school. i can do my observation and maybe student teaching there. and i really want to stay connected with that community. most places don't allow you to babysit for kids at the school so that's another reason. meh. karapist and group said it was overkill, but a ex co-worker said why not. and also words of wisdom 'it's only weird if you make it weird'. true, true. i will do it tomorrow though. i picked up papers but as soon as i got off bus my knees were buckling and i was shaky. so it was a good prep for when i go next week to visit. whee.

i am almost done with lost. i've watched the first 3 episodes (clip show with ben narrating and the first 2 proper episodes) of the 6th and FINAL season. i am so glad it's almost over. it really just pisses me off. and i swear to god if it turns out a) they are all dead, b) it's someone's sleeping or waking dream i am going to be even more pissed bc i said that from the very beginning. i actually am mad that they all went back, like after all that to get away, ok, now i am being ridiculous. let's just say i am excited to see how it all turns out in the end. =P

since i have the worst sleep schedule, or none at all i should say, i fell asleep saturday around like 6/7pm when i knew i was planning on going out to a show that i was going to be on the list for around 9pm. i totally slept through the alarms =( the first time i woke with any concept of reality was like 11pm/midnight and i was like, effff - it's too late to go to the show. i fb'ed the drummer who i asked to be on the list and said i was babysitting. lame-o, but i need sleep. i stayed up til 4am at least and slept until like 3pm today. the positive = sleep. the negative = weird hours and not getting things done. but i wasn't really getting things done before, so meh.

i have an interview at 11am tomorrow, they called it a first interview in the hiring process and they want me to bring all my papers, so i think they are seeing who has the qualifications and not, which i do. i should print out my grad courses. i also should apply to more jobs. so i don't follow a negative pattern of getting a few interviews and then stop looking. i even have like 10 jobs in my e-mail. i should do it! wooot, i got all excited!

i also need to clean everything. a lot of and well. it seems once i get going, i do pretty well, but it's the getting going that is tough. er. i just made some iced coffee. which likely means productivity but will likely affect sleep. give a little. take a little.
